#108259 - Relay ratings
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Abdul Ghafoor said:
can i operate AC current 220v using the 12v relay using this circuit Diagram.

A relay should be considered as 2 entirely separate elements:

1 The coil..
This is what operates the contacts; ie, causes them to open and close (switch on & off).
This is the only thing of concern to your microcontroller - so long as the relay's coil ratings are suitable to the circuit, the microcontroller can drive it.

2. The Contacts
This is what actually controls the load
You just need to pick a relay with a suitable contact rating for your load!

               more on relay ratings            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Yes of course            01/01/70 00:00      
               internal diodes            01/01/70 00:00      
                  ULN2003's doesn't easily burn            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Uce saturation voltage is rather high            01/01/70 00:00      
                        there is an alternative, search for it            01/01/70 00:00      
                        I agree            01/01/70 00:00      
                           That is bad design            01/01/70 00:00      
                              ULNs resist more...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 I would never suggest 74HC buffers for d            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    Yes , you didn't            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       I would like to see where that is, pleas            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          correct link            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Bad Design?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 naah            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Also depends on transistor speed            01/01/70 00:00      
                     valid issue, but not that, now another            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Indeed            01/01/70 00:00      
   Serial            01/01/70 00:00      
   How much current?            01/01/70 00:00
